you should post this sort of thing to q/a help
Get healed. Scouts are amazing with 185 in Highlander because they soft counter everything in the HL combo - they mow down Heavies, 2shot Pyros without worrying about airblast, and can chase down Demos and Medics with ease. Scouts are more efficient to heal than anything else because they have less base health, so they lose overheal slower (they lose 4 hp/sec while Soldiers lose 6.67 hp/sec. Heavies 10 hp/sec, etc). They're also really good at cleaning up because of hitscan, reload faster, can chase frags because of speed, and keep their heals because of dodging. Scouts are really good at getting healed, just make sure that, if you're holding, 2 other people are watching the flank while you run to get buffed. In fights you can play pretty close to your Medic. If you have big Uber advantage, ask for Uber, because you're the best class to clean up on Demo damage and chase down their combo. In even Ubers you should just stay on the flank until Ubers fade at least.
Take 2v1s. Do not take 1v1s unless its a garbage class like Demo Medic Sniper Spy Wrench-Engie, or you have some sort of advantage like a buff, high ground, or a health kit. But even then 2v1s are best.
Cap stuff. Low level Scouts chase frags too often. Capping is your job unless you are already on top of the Medic.
Kill the Sniper. The Sniper is the best class in HL. You're not actually the best class at killing him, but if you can, you probably should, unless the Medic has advantage or Uber, then shoot him.
on movement:
-USE THE ATOMIZER. It's ridiculously strong and there's literally no reason not to use it unless you really like sandman. You don't really need Basher because there's so many people to heal that building is usually mostly unnecessary. The one exception is if your team is doing a 7-man sacrifice on a map like Viaduct, when you have huge uber disadvantage. But I prefer Detonator / Backscratcher Pyro building because Scout is much better at killing stuff.
-actively try and dodge stuff, don't just try and move so they don't hit you, if you see a projectile try your best to get the fuck out of the way
-related to the above, actually play soldier/demo/pyro vs scout mge (or soap dm) and figure out what is easy/hard to hit, then abuse that as a scout player.
-get a null-movement canceling script so you can spam wasd better
-you can airstrafe even with single/double jumps, abuse this to not get directed
-don't spam your double jump if you get airblasted, pyro airblast blocks airstrafing for 1 second so you will go straight up, which is what they expect
-don't chase gunslinger engineers around corners if you don't know where their mini is, because it's probably around the corner
-pretty much never try to be cute in scout v scout, just shoot them
-try and save your last jump to dodge stuff, you can spam single / double with atomizer because as long as you have your double jump, you're unpredictable
-mix in standing still occasionally against projectiles when you're at longer range and hitscan in general. nobody expects standing still.
-mix in jumping back and forth instead of left and right, nobody expects that
-abuse props. also pretend to jump on props and then don't, because people won't expect that
-jump over peoples heads, also pretend to do that and then don't do it, because people expect that
-if you're at low health against a class with hitscan in a 1v1, hug them. you can 2shot pretty much anything at point blank and it's hard to hit scouts.
-conversely, if you have health advantage in a 1v1, keep your distance. they can't do much damage to you with hitscan, you can dodge projectiles easily, and chip them to death
-don't run towards health packs all the time, it's really predictable
-you can dodge a rocket/sticky by falling off of high ground, don't always double jump back up because that's predictable
-surfing damage is amazing. keep in mind double jumping resets your momentum, so don't mash it because you'll jump straight up and its really easy to shoot the ground where you land. keep it in reserve for dodging airshots and preventing fall damage. also airstrafe
-vs soldiers/demos, what you can try to do is focus 100% on dodging until they waste all of their ammo, and then kill them. count rockets (listen for the firing sound), roamers especially are free kills if they have no rockets, same with demos if they single det all of their stuff
-at the start of mids demos may prefire you, this is predictable so don't get hit by it
-look for dumb collisions to stand on with r_drawclipbrushes 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWOkYY6uMoI)
-if you see the enemy scout has like 20 inch/360 (and you don't) you can circle strafe them
Spycheck. You're very good at it, and one of the things that low level players do is leave 100% of spychecking to the Pyro, which is silly.
riverdude was ridiculously good when we pugged together, easily im capable.
hopefully he talks more in scrims than he does in pugs though (which is none).
crasian is a monster
muse holds down w like a champ
as long as marquee doesnt get forced to play med again for some reason they'll do great (because he's really good at scout)
plants vs zombies and super hexagon
i had never heard of this guy before but he's actually pretty damn good at demo
also he banned rainy from his twitch chat haha
corsatf: Had a great time slamming your shitty sniper play tonight. Looking forward to you getting raped and eliminated in playoffs. When your brother jerks off into your mouth tonight, swallow and think of me! :)
I just linked the first thing I saw in google, I read it in my psych textbook
DanceNumberReally an interesting question. Can they really be called placebo if you know that they are not doing anything? I thought a placebo had to have the guise of being an actual effective product/method. That said, I don't think anything I do is placebo in tf2. If it's not something that's proven it's not worth my time.
No. Placebos still have an effect, even when you know. http://healthland.time.com/2010/12/27/placebos-work-even-if-you-know-theyre-fake-but-how/
Froyo wasn't dominanting at i52, they got third in the group stages and the only roll was the grand finals and reason.
I46 mixup and i49 epsilon actually were a cut above though.
tetro throws in pugs. a lot. and it's annoying as fuck.
but he actually is really good at medic so you should try him out and not judge him on his 180 dpm demoknight pugs.
